Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy (this “Policy”) is provided to you by Event Tent, LLC (“Event Tent” or the “Company”), in connection with your access to Event Tent’s services. The Event Tent mobile application and services, as well as the Event Tent website located at www.eventtentapp.com (the “Site”) and any content therein (collectively, the “Services”) offer users a platform to find, create, and promote events (each an “Event”) while interacting with other Event Tent users (each a “User”) by sharing photos and videos at the location of an Event and viewing photos and videos posted by others. In this Policy, we describe how we collect, use, and disclose information that we obtain about users of our Services, which are available via mobile applications (the “App”) and/or the Site.

What Information We Collect

Account Information. When you first launch the App, we assign you a user id but we do not require you to provide your full first and last name.

We may automatically collect information about your use of the Services such as: access time, browser type, language, device ID, application ID or other unique identifier; domain name, IP address, screen views; geo-location data (with your permission); language information; device name and model; operating system information; your activities within the Services; and the length of time that you are logged in. We may combine this information with other information that we have collected about you.

Information you provide to us directly, including:

Your username, password, and e-mail address when you register for an Event Tent account.

Geolocation Data. We ask you to share your location information from your mobile device. If you choose not to, some of the Services will not function (i.e., camera – will not take pictures and/or videos), however other Services will still function. Location information is used to check you into an Event, to access the camera to take photos and/or videos for an Event. You can revoke your consent by changing the settings or preferences on your device or by deleting Event Tent from your device.

Your Content and Usage. We collect any Content you submit to the Services. The Content includes anything in your posts (for example, photos and links), votes (if made available in connection with the Services), as well as information about when you submitted the Content, when it was viewed, and other activities. For more information about our policies and procedures related to Content you submit to our Site, see our Terms and Conditions of Use (our “Terms of Use”) at www.eventtentapp.com/legal/termsofuse, which incorporates this Policy.

Telephone Number. We may ask you to provide and verify your telephone number. This process may be triggered, for example, if you want to post content or if we suspect improper activity on your account.

Other Information You Provide to Us. When you contact Event Tent, we will collect any information you volunteer.

Social Media Sites. You can like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter, and promote us on other social media sites. We collect information about who has liked us or followed us. However, we don’t associate your social media account with your Event Tent account. You may also share events through Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, SMS messages, and other social media accounts (as available).

How We Use Information We Collect

In general, we use the information we collect from and about you to provide and operate the Services, respond to your requests, and to provide customer service and technical support. We may also use information:

To tailor the information that we may send or display to you, offer location customization, and to otherwise personalize your experiences while using our Services.

To send you notices.

To display advertising, including advertising that is targeted to you based on your location, as well as your Event Tent activities.

To verify your identity and prevent spam or other unauthorized or illegal activity.

Where Information is Processed

Event Tent is based in the United States. No matter where you are located, you consent to the processing and transferring of your information in and to the U.S. and other countries. The laws of the U.S. and other countries governing data collection and use may not be as comprehensive or protective as the laws of the country where you live. And, your information may be made available to government or law enforcement requests.

How We Share Information

You cannot control who views your content; any content you post is publicly available except if the User has a private event. If a User does not wish to share content publicly, they have the option to create a private event and/or not to post Content; if you do not want to share something publicly, don’t post it to the live feed or create a public Event.

Event Tent is a social network, and the content you post may be shared with and viewable by others. We do not identify you by name or contact information to other Event Tent users. However, we cannot prevent others from determining your identity from the content you post or how you share content through third party sites.

The information we collect, including personally identifiable information, may be shared as follows:

Event Tent Users.If the Event is not private, any information that you post, including photos and videos is publicly available. We cannot control how your information is used by others. Your posts are available to all other Users. Users can also freely share any Event Tent content, no matter who posted it, through other third party sites like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. And, your posts may be publicly distributed outside of Event Tent by us or third parties.

Service Providers.We may disclose the information we collect to third party vendors, service providers, contractors or agents who perform functions on our behalf.

Business Transfers.We may transfer the information we have collected to another company in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business.

Third Parties and Partners.We may share the information with our third party partners, including advertisers and researchers. For example, if you post content that mentions one of our advertisers, we may share that content with them. Or, we may work with a researcher to analyze the content on a particular feed.

In Response to Legal Process.We also may disclose the information in order to comply with the law, a judicial proceeding, court order, subpoena, or other legal process. For example, we may share your IP address or other identifier, your location information, or any other information we have collected about you and your device.

To Protect Us and Others.We also may disclose information if we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person, violations of our Terms of Use or this Policy, or as evidence in litigation in which Event Tent is involved.

Aggregate and De-Identified Information.We may also share aggregate or de-identified information about users with third parties for marketing, advertising, research or similar purposes.

Invite Contacts

You can choose to “Share Event” by inviting contacts via text or other means. You choose what contacts to invite and when to invite them. If you invite a contact, we will generate a message with the Event Tent download URL included, which you can choose to send via your mobile device.

Sharing Your Content

Parties with whom you may choose to share your User Content:

Any information or Content that you voluntarily disclose for posting to the Service, becomes available to the public, as controlled by any applicable privacy settings that you set. Once you have shared Content or made it public, that Content may be re-shared by others without your consent.

Subject to your profile and privacy settings, any Content that you make public is searchable by other Users and subject to use under our Event Tent API. The use of the Event Tent API is subject to the Terms of Use.

Users have the option to make their Events private or public. Private events will allow Users to share content to whomever they like without it being available to the public.

You can delete Content you have posted. All posts will be publically available for the duration of the Event. As soon as the Event ends, posts will no longer be available for view.

The Content you delete will be hidden from other Users. However, Event Tent may maintain a copy of such content in our records in accordance with our Terms of Use.
